Herman Cain Actually Asked Henry Kissinger to Be His Secretary of State
Jim Newell · 11/15/11 01:44PM

Half-Naked Torch-Wielding Man Delights Hillary Clinton
Jim Newell · 11/15/11 12:29PMOh man, why don't we all get to go to Hawaii right now! The Obamas and Hillary Clinton get to go to Hawaii, for a conference. What about the rest of us? Impeach them. Look at the fun they're having. Hillary Clinton and Donald Tsang, the "chief executive of Hong Kong," were posing for a Hawaii photo and who runs past but this guy in a loin cloth with his torch. Everyone laughs! He was probably late for his fire dancing job, the silly billy.

John Cook and Ryan Tate · 11/15/11 12:19PM
Former White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel used his private Gmail account to communicate with Attorney General Eric Holder during his time in the White House, according to the results of Freedom of Information Act request we filed. Though the Department of Justice has acknowledged just one email exchange with Holder using Emanuel's unofficial address, the disclosure raises questions about whether Emanuel may have sought to skirt the Presidential Records Act by conducting government business using Gmail rather than his White House address.

Medical Marijuana Industry Discovers Foolproof Legal Strategy
Hamilton Nolan · 11/15/11 09:38AM
Medical marijuana is a very controversial issue for cities across America, pitting individual freedoms against municipal concerns with a backdrop of blah blah, [boilerplate "on the one hand, on the other hand" here].

Lauri Apple · 11/15/11 08:06AM
Before buying that special dolphin in your life an Orbital CD this holiday season, note this: some animal rights activists say loud boom-boom music can stress out dolphins so much that they will drop dead.
